The nursery provided a welcoming environment for my son, despite him not being a native English speaker. I was impressed by the care staff who demonstrated professionalism and genuine warmth. We noticed substantial improvements in his social skills and overall development since he started attending.
The nursery has created a nurturing space that has benefited him significantly. I am grateful for the positive impact it has had on my child.

Both my children have attended this nursery over the past 4 years and really enjoyed it. The whole nursery from the management, to admin to the child carers has been fantastic. My children have enjoyed the wide range of activities, outdoor time and food! I have always been happy to know my children
have been well looked after, cared for and safe whilst at nursery.

A wonderful nursery. Staff provide unparalleled care. My child gets so much fun, learning and variety. Staff stay with the nursery for a long time which gives consistency and speaks to the nursery being a good employer which was important to us. I would recommend this nursery to anyone.

The peace of mind provided by Berkeley Gardens nursery is priceless. My daughters both love it there. The staff are amazing so warm and friendly. Logistically drop-offs and pick-ups and all the communication is easy and enjoyable.
I'm regularly surprised and impressed with all the new skills and
stories they come home with concerts, parties, sports day and French.

I sent my first child years ago and didn't hesitate to send my second child as I already knew that it was the best place for them. I feel that the parents are listened to, staff have a great attitude, facilities cater to throughout the childs growth from baby to pre school. My child had totally come
out of her shell since starting a year ago.

Everyone at Berkeley Gardens goes above and beyond, they make our lives so much easier and as a result our son loves going there (even asking to go at the weekend!). To give an example; we we're going away and dropped him off in the morning, pack and get ready to go, and when we pick him up - he's had
an extra snack and just had his nappy changed!
Outside space is brilliant, activities are endless, food is good and varied. He's learnt so much and is growing more indpeendent (and opinionated!) by the day.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Both of our daughters have attended Newbury Gardens Day Nursery, one recently left to go to school and the other is still there.
They have been treated with so much kindness since joining the nursery, in each and every room. Despite only being in two days a week, everyone knows their names, what is
going on at home, even the name of bunny comforters!
They have lots of outside time, craft time and independent play. We really rate the nursery, the team and the communications we receive, the team take a genuine interest in them and what is really heartwarming is that they still ask after them when they move rooms. Senior management are hands-on and always engages with both children and parents.
Weekly updates are lovely, there's not as much app-based contact as some other nurseries but I'd sooner have them looking after the children than always on a screen! Sometimes they even do little trips out. The gardens are big and age-appropriate. We can only speak from our experience but the nursery has been fab.

I would thoroughly recommend Newbury Gardens. The staff are fantastic - a really friendly and caring team that made both my children feel loved and safe. The food is marvellous and they put so much effort into arranging fun, educational things for the children to do. I've felt really fortunate to
be able to entrust my children to them and would wholeheartedly recommend the nursery to other parents.

As a mum of three young children, having Newbury Gardens Day Nursery has been invaluable. The care and attention the children are given by staff, with endless opportunities for outdoor play and craft activities make for a great atmosphere in each age-appropriate room. I feel safe in the knowledge that
my babies are getting the best possible care, one thing less to worry about as a working parent!
It is also worth noting that the hygiene is great here - any outbreaks of typical childhood illnesses (present in every and any nursery) are swiftly dealt with and contained.
Communication is great and management always has time for queries.
The building is well-loved and you can see that little people are the focus here.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Really brilliant nursery and very convenient to professionals who work in London as it's so close to the train station.
They do not show pictures of their huge garden on their website so we initially thought they had no outdoor space. How wrong we were!
My son has come along hugely in confidence since
joining them. Their manager is just lovely. We were really surprised to be offered as space as my son had allergies to various foods and we thought he would be low down on their list for allocation for this reason. Not only did they accept him but they were so careful with his allergies (much more careful than the nursery he went to before).
We highly recommend.

Excellent nursery. Friendly, professional, and the children are all happy to be there too.
They provide a wide variety of fun activities for the children to entertain them, and the food is varied too.
We’ve been particularly impressed with the lady (who has now moved department) and another in the
bunnies room too.

Woodley Gardens Day Nursery is a super friendly, welcoming and caring environment for my child. I feel so comfortable dropping them and picking them up from our nursery. Knowing they are in a safe place, being cared for, educated and disciplined. The food reviews from my child are superb! The staff
are very approachable, honest and give great feedback of my child’s day.

My son has attended the nursery since he was 10 months old and he is now 4! The nursery staff are lovely. The nursery carries out classes during the week which my son loves. He has made some great friends, looks forward to coming to nursery and has had a lovely experience here. I would recommend the
nursery and we will be sad to be leaving in September. Thank you all at Woodley Gardens Day Nursery for all your care and support throughout the years!

My daughter has been with the nursery since she was 13 months started when Covid hit and the nursery has always been great to keep you up to date with their day with photos and written-up dates.
They have extra weekly activities like wiggle waggle my daughter loves dancing each week and learning new
routines.
The staff are great and always have time to talk if you need them it feels like a family-run nursery. They have a great outdoor space which they use as much as they can which is great for all the children to explore.
We are sad to be leaving the nursery in August to begin school but the memories and friends my daughter made in her early years have been amazing.
Would recommend to anyone to send their children here.

This nursery is beyond words. It is such a pleasure to talk to the staff and my daughter is so happy to go there! the pictures and videos they have from each time my daughter goes show how much effort they go through to ensure the children are safe and happy.
I have on occasion needed the nursery's
help with various things and they are very accommodating.
The fact that my daughter spent very little time getting used to the nursery speaks for itself. I'm so grateful for their help, as a mother it just brings some relief knowing that I'm dropping my child to a place she loves.
The best nursery in locally.
